Our home is where we are
Edwin and Maxim were wonderful housesitters for us and were great companions for our little dog Toby. They spent about a month taking care of our apartment in Lisbon, Portugal and keeping Toby happy and without separation anxiety. Furthermore, they kept our large apartment spotlessly clean, going well beyond what would be expected to clean, polish, dust, and vacuum and maintain the kitchen and bathrooms perfectly. In addition, they made sure the car was started each week to keep the battery charged, collected the mail each day, and watered the plants on our balcony. Both Edwin and Maxim are charming with delightful personalities, and they are a pleasure to work with. In addition to providing excellent care for our dog Toby and the apartment, they kept us informed with near daily reports, photos and videos. We wholeheartedly give them our very highest rating and would be happy to have them back the next time we travel.

Reliable teacher looking for opportunity to house and pet sit.
Bianca was a great sitter and despite us being very last minute with the sit, was very willing to accommodate us. She sent us updates of the kitties throughout the day and was in general very self sufficient. We would definitely recommend her!

The Most Responsible Person You'll Ever Meet
Our dog was i great hands with Christine, she was well looked after and cared for. We received pictures and updates. House and plants were just as well cared for, super tidy and considerate. Even gave us feedback as it was our first sit which helped a lot for the next (instruction manuals etc)

Lots of Love and Tender Care for Your Furry Sweetheart(s)!
I highly recommend Elize. She was respectful of my pets and my home. She followed my guide so that my pets usual routines were maintained. She went beyond my expectations.

Dutch housesitters family/couple/solo/with a friend.
Jan arrived from Holland the evening before our departure allowing us time to get to know a bit about him and for us to explain a few things about the house and our dog. He was very easy going and we felt happy to leave him in charge. He seemed to enjoy his time here and sent us information on his experiences and photos. The house was left clean and tidy and the dog was clearly very relaxed and well cared for.

Cat Lady: More of an eye for cats than for men. But just as attractive to dogs.
Jorien was a very caring and responsible house and pet sitter She kept in touch over the weeks we were away to keep us updated of how she was getting on with our dog and house She obviously spent quality time with him and establishing a great relationship We would thoroughly recommend her and would not hesitate in having her back

Former Pet Sitting Company Owner with Wanderlust! Non-smoker, non-drinker.
Matthew arrived quietly confident. He cared for the fish and house well and makes the most magnificent Brownies. I recommend Matthew to other house sitters and would invite him back again.
Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer. Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily. The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming. Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. Thanks Kendra!!
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
We couldn't have asked for better sitters than Pares and Mark. Since our initial contact, it was straightforward to communicate with Pares. We were lucky enough to get a chance to meet Pares with our dog Luna, and Luna got along with her immediately. During our time away from home, she kept us informed about how both our dog and cat were doing, and they were both cuddling with her since the first day. We got a lot of pictures and knew that they were safe and happy. The apartment was exactly as we had left it when we came back. Pares and Mark even ran the dishwasher and the washing machine for us. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and it made our trip very easy knowing they were taken care of so well. We'd have Pares and Mark back to our home without any hesitation.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home for free at Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Zeewoi cat sitters for free, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
You can easily relax and enjoy vacation knowing that your dog is in great hands with a sitter from Nana. Always good experience. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
Nana’s home is THE best place to take care of you dog/cat! I super recommend them! They have been pet sitting my dog for 4’years now and they always do it with so much care and love. As a company they are super organized as well, making sure you get first a profile of the host and you get a meet and great time face to face before deciding. They always make sure there is a group for updates of your pet during the stay and admins are also involved so there is transparency and security. They love animals and they have hosts that are well trained and experienced. Thank you Nana’s home!
We spent two years living in Amsterdam with our dog Percy. Nana’s made it incredibly easy to set up sitters for her, and we always had great experiences with each of the sitters. We really felt like we had "family" in Amsterdam that were always available to watch Percy whenever we traveled. Nana's is a really unique and differentiated pet-sitting program and I couldn't be happier that we found them. We would recommend Nana’s to anyone in Amsterdam that regularly needs a reliable dog sitter and doesn’t want to spend the time searching for a sitter every time there is a need.
Truly the best pet sitting service I have ever experienced. Very communicative, flexible, affordable, and friendly! My dog Jefferson loves Nana’s home!
I’m using Nana’s Home for 2 years now and they were always able to find a nice caring host for my dog as well as transport him there and back.
Great service with super caring people! I’ve used twice already and my dog always super happy and safe!
Our cat Maggie never really liked staying at a cat pension. It stressed her out, and she'd often come home scruffy and anxious. Looking for an alternative, we came across Steven from Creature Comforts Pet Sitting, and we couldn't have been luckier. From the first interaction, Steven was always quick to respond, accommodating, and transparent. Before the cat sitting period, we had a first meeting to provide the keys for the apartment, and for Steven to meet Maggie. Maggie, being a former stray, is usually pretty shy around strangers, and didn't really approach Steven during the first meeting. From Steven's first visit onwards, though, Maggie became super affectionate, approachable, and relaxed. We got daily updates on Maggie, plus a photo and sometimes a video. Steven took the time to give Maggie plenty of pets, brush her, or play with her during his visits. Even when we had a special request such as an earlier visit on a certain day, or watering our plants, Steven was more than happy to accommodate. In addition to the wonderful service, Creature Comforts' daily rate for a 20-minute visit is hardly more expensive than any nice cat pension in the Amsterdam area. Plus, your cat gets to stay in her familiar surroundings, and can stay much more relaxed that way. We are incredibly happy with the level of service, kindness, and attention to detail at Creature Comforts. If you're thinking about hiring a pet sitter for your four-legged friend, we (and Maggie) can highly recommend Creature Comforts! 🐈⬛
Steven took wonderful care of my bunny while I was away! He was very conscious and attentive to her needs (especially on a particularly hot summer day), and I felt at ease knowing she was being cared for with love. Steven was very professional and communication was great with daily updates and photos. Creature Comforts is now my go to pet sitter!
Amazing business, Steven provided fantastic care to my 3 cats while I was away. He came everyday and send me photos and videos to reassure me the cats were doing well. As we all know cats are not always very welcoming to newcomers but they loved Steven from the start. I have already planned next visits during my upcoming trips, and I sincerely recommend the business to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
Steven has been nothing short of amazing. I called with an absolute last minute need for a dog sitter and Steven was more than happy to help. He made everything a breeze during the chaos of traveling. He sent updates all day, everyday. He truly went above and beyond in every way. He will definitely be our “go to” sitter from now on ❤️
This is a wonderful business run with care and love. The owner is thoughtful, attentive, and communicative. He is incredible with cats and dogs. His calm demeanor helped our old cat (20 years old!) to feel comfortable and safe. He sent us pictures and videos each day he visited her and checked in to make sure we returned home from our travel, showing his own personal concern over our cat and her return to us. When we met with him to get our home keys back, he was generous with funny stories about our cat and with tips for the neighborhood (we were new!). We are very thankful for this service and will unquestionably return next time we need someone to take care of our old cat.
We had an incredible experience with Matt watching our dog! He was extremely communicative, super great with our dog, and very accommodating. Highly recommend Matt and we will definitely be using him again.
Matt took such incredible care of my beloved kitty Wilma and my more challenging pup Sassy. Matt is reliable and really loves cats! Highly recommend.
matt is great! he takes such good care of my kitties when i'm away. i know i can rely on him to be there for them when i can't and they're in good hands. they love him!
Matt is careful and reliable. Took care of our dog and allowed us a fine day of sightseeing in Amsterdam. Highly recommended!!! Ciao
Excellent communication from Steven and our cat liked him
Yvonne is the most fantastic dog sitter. She is reliable, friendly, flexible, trustworthy and has gone above and beyond to care for our dog Rosie when we are away. Rosie gets super excited when we drop her off. It is so wonderful to go on holiday and have such peace of mind knowing she is so well looked after and has lots of fun on her walks. I highly recommend Yvonne if you’re looking for someone to look after your furry friend!
Paw House has walked my dog for four years now, Yvonne were there for me the day i adopted my dog. My dog was a rescue and nervous at first but Yvonne at Paw House is a true professional, always does the right thing, kind and reliable. Me and my dog could never be without her. Could not recommend more.
The Paw House Amsterdam - Yvonne My little greyhound regularly has walks and day care with Yvonne and has done so for many years now. Seeing Yvonne is the highlight of Schoko’s day when I’m out at work and has long walks in the park with his other doggy friends. Schoko absolutely adores Yvonne and I have absolute trust in her to take care of my very sensitive and a bit nervous little boy. Thank you Yvonne for providing me with such an amazing, reliable, value for money service.
Yvonne is always super flexible and has the best service, even in the last minute when I need help! One time I got stuck abroad and needed help with boarding service last minute.. Yvonne without any hesitation picked up my doggo and took amazing care of him for 5 days. My pup adores Yvonne and always love the fellow furry friends who he gets to go on walks. Recommend 200%
The Paw House Amsterdam has been Buddy’s second house for the last five years. Yvonne takes very good care of him, she is very responsible and reliable, regularly sends us updates and pictures. There was a situation when Buddy didn’t feel well. She took him to the vet and administered medicine. We are very happy with Yvonne’s services and fully recommend her.
Paw House Amsterdam is the best and our dog, Lulu, is madly in love with Yvonne! We have used Paw House Amsterdam for overnight boarding and dog walks, both of which have helped Lulu gain confidence and social skills. I always know Lulu will be loved and well cared for when she is with Yvonne and I never have to worry about her when I'm on holiday. If you ever get the chance to let Paw House Amsterdam take care of your furry friends, do it. You will not be let down!
There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing The Paw House Amsterdam is. I use to only travel if my little pup could come with me or if my brother could watch him, until I met Yvonne! She treats my fur baby like her own and I always leave without a single worry and can enjoy my trip. Not only is she wonderful with my dog, but she is also so easy to work with and extremely accommodating with dates, times, last minute spots as well as with my little pup. I have so many things to say and can’t recommend The Paw House enough!!!
Bentley has stayed with Yvonne numerous times over the past several years - for doggy daycare, weekend stays, and up to 2 weeks. I completely trust Yvonne to care for my pup. She sends pictures and stays in good contact and my dog is always happy to see her. One time while I was away for a long stay, my dog had an ear infection. Yvonne took Bentley to the vet, gave him medicine, and continued to care for him until I came home. When the opportunity arises, I never hesitate to recommend The Paw House!
I totally trust Yvonne with taking care of my furry friend. My little Moose loves Yvonne and is always super excited when she sees her. Yvonne is really one of Amsterdam's best dogwalker and daycare services. LOVE HER!
I was referred to Yvonne after trying several other dog walkers. It was refreshing to just know that my dog was well taken care of while I was at work during the day. Yvonne was completely reliable, never once did she cancel. My dog was always so happy to see her.
We are delighted to have found Delusional Dogs! Our rather anxious rescue absolutely loved staying with Chris for 3 weeks while we were away on holiday. We received great video updates daily showing her having an absolute blast on her daily adventures to the lake and playing with all the other dogs in the house. It's the first time we've been confident that our dog was happy while being looked after by a pet sitter. 10/10 would recommend.
We have been using Chris as our dog sitter for over a year, and we are extremely satisfied with his services. Chris is reliable, professional, and genuinely cares for our dog, Coco. From the moment we met Chris, it was clear that he has a true love for animals. He provides a safe and happy environment for the dogs he's taking care off. Coco adores him, and we can tell she is always happy and well-cared for in his presence. Chris communicates very well. He keeps us updated with regular texts, photos, and videos of Coco having a great time. One of the things we appreciate most about Chris is his flexibility. He has always been understanding and accommodating when our plans change unexpectedly or when Coco needs a last minute dog sitting solution. It's a relief to have someone we can rely on, no matter the circumstances. Chris is a fantastic dog sitter who consistently goes the extra mile for Coco. He is reliable, caring, and professional in all aspects of his service. We highly recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy dog sitter. Thank you, Chris, for taking such great care of Coco!
My experience with Delusional Dogs and Chris, in particular, has been absolutely phenomenal. Chris's dependability and adaptability have really eased my usually hectic routine. His skills in handling anxious dogs, like my Sunny, were nothing short of amazing. Chris knew just how to meet Sunny's needs, creating an environment that suited her perfectly. Under Chris's care, Sunny was not just managed but genuinely loved and cherished. What really distinguished Chris was the peace of mind he gave me. Regular updates while traveling and photos of their outings reassured me that Sunny was not just fine but flourishing. I can't recommend Delusional Dogs and Chris enough. His professionalism paired with genuine care for my Sunny has set a new standard in dog sitting.
We have been using Chris's services for about a year. He is great with dogs and our dog (Cody) loves going to stay with Chris. Chris is an excellent trainer as well. Every time Cody comes back from staying with Chris, he's learned some new trick or positive behavior.
What can I say about Chris and Delusional Dogs. Actually it's more about what our dog says (dog speak) and does when he knows it's time to go to Chris! He loves his play days when he spends the day with Chris and his other charges. And at the end of the day he is completely zonked out. What more can you want. Chris has also looked after our dog overnight on a couple of occasions and the photos show what a fun time he has. Chris has helped him be a better dog as well.Seeing Chris with his new mode of transport makes him a very unique sight around town! So all good and thoroughly recommended.
Chris is experienced trainer/sitter, took good care of our doggie, which is true relief during our away period. Our doggie was happy and became more social with other dogs. Chris also waived some extra charge, definately will come back when going out next time.
Chris is a very nice person and easy to comminicate . He took care of our dog. for 5 days . He updated us regularly about how our dog is doing . He is also a dog trainer we plan to contact him again for our next trip also daily care .
Chris was our dog walker for 5 years and izzy our dog loved every min of it! We could always trust him to take care of her while she was having so much fun! Highly recommended!
Chris has been our dog Walker for over 2yrs and the dogs love him stacks! He is great at training and walks but especially bonding with them.
Jackie’s favorite sleepover address. She is always very happy and excited to go and stay with Chris.
It’s our first time having a dog walker. We are quite protective over our doggie Luna. And having WW train and walk our dog was amazing throughout the year. They are very accommodating to our requests and take very good care of Luna during her walks. They also send updates and pictures on her walks and improvements. Last but not least, Luna loves her walker. She’ll always be waiting for him when it’s time for her walks. Thank you guys!!!!
We have been going to Keagan and Wiwi for almost a year now to look after our dog Indy since he was a puppy. They’re both so warm, attentive, caring and patient that whenever Indy is with them, we know he’s in the safest of hands. Each time Indy sees them he’s SO happy and looks forward to spending quality time bonding with them and the other doggies. Indy can be a little reactive and excited sometimes and both of them are so knowledgable, calm and know exactly how to handle these situations. We would highly recommend Keagan and Wiwi for all your pet boarding and walking needs, we’re so grateful we found them 💕
My dog Sabi can be quite wary of new humans, but WW are so good with dogs, there was an instant bond. Sabi literally runs out the door in excitement whenever she knows she's about to go on her walk with Keagan. They take such good care of her when she stays with them too, she almost doesn't want to come home. She's a better dog for having spent time with them
Layla loves to stay at WW when we travel. It takes her no time at all to get cozy and comfy with her hosts, and I can see she is always having the best time from the updates, photos and videos that I get. Layla is a bit reactive, and WW know very well how to handle it lovingly and patiently. She couldn't be in better hands!
Truly dog lovers! My dog, 8yo pug, had been going to the same pet sitter for years. When she moved I thought I couldn't find someone so caring and devoted as her. I am SO lucky I found Wondrous Waltzes!!!! They take care of every dog, know their needs, keep them very calm, almost like dog whisperers! They are easy going and warm people. Professional AND human. Best combo. Morti has stayed twice with them, and both times he comes back happy and looking awesome. Thank you for everything! ❤️
These guys really love animals and I see it when my dog gets so excited when she sees them! Not only are they great with looking after our dog Disco, they’ve helped improve her behaviour and they are very friendly, organised and proffesional :)
We have what Keagan describes as an intense dog. Haha. But he says it with all the kindness in the world. We adopted a 5-year-old Shiba in 2022 who had previously been a stay-at-home dog with 2 other Shibas in a rural area. He had received no training and was completely new to city life, being walked, and meeting unknown dogs. His training has been a spicy adventure 🥰🐶🌶 The minute Yuki met Keagan for a test walk, we knew we'd found the right walker for the job. Yuki thinks Keagan is his best friend. And we love working together with Keagan on Yuki's progress. We've gone from having a dog that was super spicy for the first 40 minutes of a walk to a dog that is only spicy for the first 5 minutes. He's started pack walks, can safely meet unknown dogs, has ridden on trams, and we even found a petsitter through WW that Yuki loves, too. Wondrous Waltzes have changed walk time from a bit of a stress into a joyful time for both us and Yuki.
We love our dog walker and so does our dog. We have seen an incredible improvement in his behaviour with other dogs since we started and we are so glad. Admin has also been easy and speedy, definitely recommend this service!
